Sweet Maserati, a model from back when they truly were "The Car of Kings". I love the blue with red interior, too.

Seriously, watch a few of the dash cam car crash videos on YouTube, especially the Russian ones. SUVs, the Lexus and Kia ones in particular, roll over waaaaay too easily in relatively minor accidents for my taste.
An SUV is a sports car that is also roomy/practical, in theory has good visibility, panache and did I say (in many cases) performance ?

No one wants a minivan any more because why sit in a barely drivable box when there are SUVs ?
Unless of course you need a box.
